1.       General

         The accompanying consolidated financial statements, footnotes and
         discussions of Winthrop Miami Associates Limited Partnership (the
         "Partnership") should be read in conjunction with the financial
         statements, related footnotes and discussions contained in the
         Partnership's Annual Report on form 10-KSB for the year ended December
         31, 1997.

         The financial information contained herein is unaudited. In the opinion
         of management, all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of
         such financial information have been included. All adjustments are of a
         normal recurring nature. Certain amounts have been reclassified to
         conform to the June 30, 1998 presentation. The balance sheet at
         December 31, 1997 was derived from audited financial statements at such
         date.

         The results of operations for the six months ended June 30, 1998 and
         1997 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for
         the full year.

2.       Related Party Transactions

         Management fees are paid to an affiliate of the General Partner and are
         based on 5% of cash receipts. Fees of $324,000 and $291,000 were earned
         by affiliates during the periods ending June 30, 1998 and June 30,
         1997, respectively.

         The Operating Partnerships owed an affiliate of the General Partner
         $59,000 and $47,000 at June 30, 1998 and June 30, 1997 respectively on
         the management fee.

3.       Sale of the Permanent Loan

         On May 28, 1997, AP Nations LLC, a related party, acquired the
         outstanding balance of the permanent loan together with contractual
         interest due of $14,357,938 from the FDIC for $47,000,000. The accrued
         interest was capitalized and consolidated with the principal balance
         into a single note (the "Consolidated Note"). The Consolidated Note was
         then restructured into two separate notes (the "First Note" and the
         "Subordinated Note"). The First Note of $40,000,000, which is held by
         Travelers Life Insurance Company, bears interest at Libor plus 180
         basis points (7.47% at June 30, 1998) and is collateralized by the
         office tower and retail space. The first note was assigned to Travelers
         Life Insurance Company on May 30, 1997.

         The Subordinate Note in the amount of $11,157,938, which is held by AP
         Nations LLC, bears interest at 9.5% per annum plus 9.5% per annum on
         the outstanding principal balance on the First Note less the amount of
         interest due and payable with respect to the First Note. The
         Subordinate Note is collateralized by the general partnership interest
         in the operating partnerships.

         In connection with the new loan agreement, an interest rate protection
         agreement was entered into to provide the operating partnership with
         funds should the First Note interest exceed 9.5% per annum.

         The First Note and Subordinate Note combined require interest only
         payments until July 1999 when principal payments of $48,660 per month
         begin. The stated maturity date of the loans is May 30, 2001.

         As a result of the restructuring, the operating partnerships recognized
         an extraordinary gain of approximately $1,845,000 for financial
         reporting purposes.

Item 2.  Management's Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operation

         This item should be read in conjunction with the financial statements
         and other items contained elsewhere in the report.

         Liquidity and Capital Resources

         The matters discussed in this Form 10-QSB contain certain
         forward-looking statements and involve risks and uncertainties
         (including changing market conditions, competitive and regulatory
         matters, etc.) The discussion of the Partnership's business and results
         of operations, including forward-looking statements pertaining to such
         matters, does not take into account the effects of any changes to the
         Partnership's business and results of operations. Accordingly, actual
         results could differ materially from those projected in the
         forward-looking statements as a result of a number of factors,
         including those identified herein.

         The Registrant's sole assets are its approximately 88% interest in each
         of Miami Tower Associates Limited Partnership ("Miami Tower") and Miami
         Retail Associates Limited Partnership ("Miami Retail"). Miami Tower and
         Miami Retail (collectively, the "Operating Partnerships") own a
         37-story commercial office building located in Miami, Florida and a
         ground floor retail arcade located in the same building, respectively
         (the "Property"). The Operating Partnerships generate rental revenue
         from the Property and are responsible for the Property's operating
         expenses, administrative expenses, debt service and capital
         improvements.

         The Registrant's primary source of revenue is distributions from the
         cash flow of the Operating Partnerships. In April 1998 the Operating
         Partnerships made a distribution of $545,000 to the Registrant and
         $78,000 to the minority partner. The Registrant used cash reserves to
         satisfy administrative and other expenses during the six months ended
         June 30, 1998. In addition, in April 1998 the Registrant distributed
         $545,000 to its partners.

         As of June 30, 1998, the Registrant had cash and cash equivalents of
         $1,576,000. The Registrant's and the Operating Partnership's level of
         liquidity, on a consolidated basis, decreased $1,132,000 during the six
         months ended June 30, 1998, as compared to December 31, 1997. This
         decrease was due to $1,350,000 of cash used in investing activities and
         distributions of $632,000 which were partially offset by $841,000 in
         cash provided by operating activities. Cash used by investing
         activities consisted of $1,337,000 of additions to building and
         improvements and $156,000 of deferred leasing commissions paid, offset
         by a decrease in restricted cash of $143,000.

         On May 28, 1997, AP Nations LLC, a related party, acquired the
         outstanding balance of the permanent loan together with contractual
         interest due of $14,357,938 from the FDIC for $47,000,000. The accrued
         interest was capitalized and consolidated with the principal balance
         into a single note (the "Consolidated Note"). The Consolidated Note was
         then restructured into two separate notes (the "First Note" and the
         "Subordinated Note"). The First Note of $40,000,000, which is held by
         Travelers Life Insurance Company, bears interest at Libor plus 180
         basis points (7.47% at June 30, 1998) and is collateralized by the
         office tower and retail space. The first note was assigned to Travelers
         Life Insurance Company on May 30, 1997.

         The Subordinate Note in the amount of $11,157,938, which is held by AP
         Nations LLC, bears interest at 9.5% per annum plus 9.5% per annum or
         the outstanding principal balance on the First Note less the amount of
         interest due and payable with respect to the First Note. The
         Subordinate Note is collateralized by the general partnership interest
         in the operating partnerships.

         Liquidity and Capital Resources (continued)

         In connection with the new loan agreement, an interest rate protection
         agreement was entered into to provide the operating partnership with
         funds should the First Note interest exceed 9.5% per annum.

         The First Note and Subordinate Note combined require interest only
         payments until July 1999 when principal payments of $48,660 per month
         begin. The stated maturity date of the loans is May 30, 2001.

         As a result of the restructuring, the operating partnerships recognized
         an extraordinary gain of approximately $1,845,000 for financial
         reporting purposes.

         The Registrant has invested and expects to continue to invest its
         unrestricted cash in money market instruments until required for
         operating purposes. The operating partnership had in capital
         improvement, real estate taxes and security deposit escrows at June 30,
         1998, $3,789,000; $1,225,000; and $348,000 respectively, held by the
         mortgage lender. Restricted cash also includes a utility deposit of
         $166,000. Therefore, at June 30, 1998, the Registrant has total
         reserves of $5,528,000, which is expected to be sufficient to satisfy
         foreseeable working capital requirements.

         Results of Operations

         The Net Operating Loss before minority interest of the Partnership and
         Gain due to refinancing increased by $64,000 for the six months ended
         June 30, 1998, as compared to the six months ended June 30, 1997 as a
         result of a $367,000 increase in expenses which was partially offset by
         a $303,000 increase in revenues. The Net Operating Loss before minority
         interest of the Partnership and Gain due to refinancing increased by
         $208,000 for the three months ended June 30, 1998, as compared to 1997,
         as a result of a $327,000 increase in expenses which was partially
         offset by a $119,000 increase in revenues

         Revenues increased for the six months ended June 30, 1998, as compared
         to 1997, due to increases in rental income of $352,000 and operating
         expense reimbursements of $59,000, which was partially offset by a
         decrease in interest income of $108,000. Rental revenues increased due
         to an increase in rental rates from $22.92 per square foot to $23.15
         per square foot and an increase in occupancy from 85% to 90%.

         Expenses for the six months ended June 30, 1998, as compared to 1997,
         increased due to increases in real estate taxes ($110,00), depreciation
         and amortization ($77,000), interest expense ($40,000), utilities
         ($46,000), repairs and maintenance ($43,000) and management fees
         ($33,000). Real estate taxes increased due to an abatement filed for
         and received for calendar 1997. Depreciation and amortization increased
         because of the new additions in 1998. Interest expense increased for
         financial reporting purposes as a result of the modification of the
         Permanent Loan. Prior to the modification, interest expense was
         reported using the effective interest method that resulted in a level
         yield interest rate of 8.64%. The accrual interest rate under the
         restated and amended loan is 9.5%. Utilities increased in 1998 due to
         occupancy and the decrease in tenant overtime reimbursements. Repairs
         and maintenance increased due to higher contract prices. All other
         expense items remain relatively constant for the comparative periods.
